GRAPEVINE PARKS & REC NEWSLETTER
WELCOME September is here, bringing one of the most exciting seasons of the year. Grapevine Parks & Rec is known for creating unforgettable fall events, and our community eagerly awaits them. After a strong showing at the DFW Directors 6 Pack, our team enters the season with momentum, pride, and determination. As defending champions, the pressure was high but once again we delivered. We won kickball, 2nd in archery, placed 5th in aquatics, and 3rd and 4th in pickleball. Most importantly, we secured the overall tournament victory and kept our championship streak alive. These results reflect a team that shows up, competes hard, and lifts each other up. That same spirit fuels us as we prepare for another vibrant fall season. Thank you for bringing your best every day and proving why Grapevine Parks & Rec is truly championship caliber.
